[P1] Mac osx app to cut mp3s ?

[Joe Jones]

Use Audacity.

It's a freeware, open source app available on versiontracker and 
similar download sites.

I won't edit an mp3 file directly, but it will convert it into an 
uncompressed format for editing. You can then export the smaller chunks 
as either wav or aiff files that can be made into mp3s again by iTunes.

Obviously, this means that the file will have been compressed into mp3 
twice, once to make the original large file and a second time to make 
the smaller ones. Choose a larger bitrate for the smaller files to try 
and minimise quality loss, although it shouldn't be too bad.

That's the link to the program you need.
